My art is my autobiography, both fantasized and real.  I paint 'romantic adventurism,' a mystique of the intellect and the heart."   The idea for Doktor Thrill came in 1970 when Linderman was vacationing in San Diego.  He was sitting on Fisherman's Wharf at Crystal Pier, "with the fog rolling in, the moon coming up, and the waves lashing against the pilings," when his imagination kicked into high gear, and Doktor Thrill was born.  During the next three years, Linderman drew sketches of his character, who originally appeared as Captain Evil, a mysterious looking man one might find in novels of intrigue.  These initial works were influenced by German Expressionism.   By 1974, however, Linderman had slicked up Captain Evil and transformed him into Doktor Thrill, an urbane character who, with his three cohorts -- Snake Lady, Blue Angel, and Lotta Heat -- lives life in the fast lane; a sensual character reminiscent of Errol Flynn. Linderman describes Doktor Thrill as "every man's prototype; he's cool and macho, a contempo tough guy, suave and debonair, a pleasure seeker who sleeps late and plays all night." Doktor Thrill's metamorphosis was a direct response to Linderman's "need to express myself in a brighter style."  Today, his creations have achieved a cult status, with collectors and fans often showing up at his openings dressed as their favorite Linderman characters.   Linderman, who was born in Endicott, New York, graduated from Pennsylvania State University with a Ph.D. in Art Education, and taught art at Sacramento State University, Oregon State University and Arizona State University, where he also served as Chairman of the Art Department.  He also has written several books on art, including four textbooks that are used on campuses around the country.   Linderman's art is displayed in private collections throughout the world and is included in numerous public collections, such as the Phoenix Art Museum, the Portland Art Museum, the Plains Art Museum, Eckerd College, the William C. Brown Publishing Company, and Valley National Bank, to name just a few. NO REASONABLE OFFERS REFUSED ON 4700 OTHER ITEMS! CLICKPowered by eBay Turbo Lister Place a Bid!
